Issues Ryan sees across Cairns
Gas smell or suspected leak
If you can smell gas, it needs immediate attention. Ryan carries leak detection equipment and can locate and repair gas leaks safely. Never ignore a gas smell — call first, ask questions later.
Appliance installation
New gas cooktop, hot water system, or heater? All gas appliance connections must be done by a licensed gas fitter. Ryan installs, connects, tests, and issues the required compliance certificate.
No outdoor gas point
Want to run a gas BBQ, pizza oven, or outdoor kitchen? Ryan installs dedicated gas bayonet points — no more swapping bottles or running out mid-cook.
Compliance issues
Buying or selling a property? Insurance claim? Sometimes you need a gas compliance certificate. Ryan inspects the system, identifies any faults, and issues the certificate once everything passes.

FAQ
Common questions
Do I need a licensed gas fitter?
Yes — it's a legal requirement in Queensland. All gas work must be performed by a licensed gas fitter and a compliance certificate must be issued. DIY gas work is illegal and dangerous. Ryan holds the appropriate gas fitting licence under his QBCC credentials.
How do I know if I have a gas leak?
The most obvious sign is the smell — natural gas has a distinctive rotten-egg odour added for safety. Other signs include a hissing sound near gas lines, dead vegetation near underground pipes, or a higher-than-expected gas bill. If you suspect a leak, ventilate the area and call immediately.
How much does a gas BBQ point cost?
A standard outdoor gas bayonet installation in Cairns typically ranges from a few hundred dollars depending on the distance from your existing gas line and any modifications needed. Ryan quotes the exact cost after seeing the site — no ballpark guesses.
Can you convert my electric hot water to gas?
Yes — gas hot water conversions are one of Ryan's most common gas fitting jobs. He runs the gas line, installs the new system, removes the old one, and issues compliance certificates for both the gas and plumbing work.
